Intervention group had significantly lower anxiety scores than control group at fourth and eighth weeks (P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the emotion change over time in control group (P > 0.05). The anxiety in the intervention group was significantly improved at the 4th and 8th weeks (P<0.05).
